Thanks!  I've pushed this patch on your behalf and started the 'staging'
jobset on Hydra, with a small change...

LLVM 7 is a heavy dependency, so I opted to drop it since it is not
required.  Feel free to add the LLVM <at> 7 variant on 'master' in the mean
time -- it would be good to make it the default in the next staging
cycle.  Did you try upgrading Clang as well?

Great, thanks for keeping up with Mesa development!
